BuddyDroid – BuddyPress for Android

This is a very simple Android Buddypress client. If configured properly, it will allow you to post status updates to your Buddypress install via Android. It also has a simple RSS reader for your sitewide activity feed.

The app now starts, and I can register, but when I tap refresh, I’ve got an error message…
It says org.xmlrpc.android.XMLRPCExption: xmlpull.v1? XmlpullParserExeption unexpected type (position END_DOCUMENT null@1:1 in java.io. InputStreamReader@…
Where the 3 dots are, are everythime other characters.
How can this be fixed?

Probably means some server problem. Have you updated the server plugin? I had to modify it, maybe the old version doesn’t work with the new configuration. Also, make sure your ‘website’ setting is just the base URL http://www.yoursite.com/

I tried using an admin account everything worked fine, then I tried on a normal account but found no Remote Access settings. I was wondering is this supposed to work only for admins or am I missing something?

Just a heads-up that I have changed the authentication system to use passwords instead of api keys – WordPress client does the same, and it cuts out a large part of the hassle of registering, not to mention “what could go wrong”. Now you just input your password in preferences and then return to the main screen. Shouldn’t take more than that.

To use the latest version of either the server or BuddyDroid, you must upgrade both – the server is at 0.4 and BuddyDroid is at 2.0
